Description
June 30, 2007 - Papercut_Dragon
I''ve been painting this all day, pretty much non-stop, and my eyes are fried. @_____@

Please please pretty please take two seconds of your life and view the detail here!


Ok! This is another painting that I did that was inspired by a famous artist''s painting - this time it''s Pieter Bruegel the Elder''s "Return of the Hunters."

Go look! Click!

And by inspired I mean I took pretty much the whole composition, lol. But this one of the few paintings I saw in ninth grade Art History 1 and cared about - it stuck with me for a long time.

And yes, I DID just draw Hitsugaya. Again. *Slinks off*

I did want to change the mood a little - this situation is a bit more threatening than hunters returning. So I changed the sky around; you wouldn''t believe what kind of difference that little strip of yellow sky made.

So is there a story behind this? Why are they out in the middle of nowhere with their swords out and ready? What''s with the dragons? I dunno! Go make something up. I''m gonna get away from this computer, ''cause my eyes are seriously dying.

About 15 hours, Photoshop, referenced Bruegel.

(Love your icon!)

I don't get asked these questions too often, so don't worry. ^_^ And, this one is actually all Photoshop. I sketched, colored, did everything in that program. About 99% of my artwork is like that - if it's digital, it's all digital; if it's traditional media, it's all traditional.

Hope that answered your question!

Photoshop is really expensive - I recommend either getting Photoshop Elements, or Paint Shop Pro. Paint Shop is a really good program to start out with, and it's afforadble. :)

Yeah, dA took me a while to get used to - but I also had someone helping me out a lot. ^^;

And yes, yes they are. ^_^ In the original, there's SOMETHING flying around in the background - it even looks draconic. So I just went ahead and made it a dragon. :P

The details are most awesome. You obviously put a lot of effort into this artwork and can see why you like it. I saw your link in iDNAR's art contest in the forums. This pales in comparison to my feeble attempt. Good luck with it and keep up the good work.

That's very nice. I couldn't even tell that this was anime-based (which is a good thing!) It looked like such a fantasy painting. Done really well.

The woman - she's got a very "sci-fi woman" pose, doesn't she? ^^; I blame all the sci-fi fantasy book covers I've seen. :P Glad you like it!

Yeah. Definitely sci-fi. :)
